I know of 1 person on here who builds impressive websites just wondered who else gets involved and does them also ?

Well you know i do for a start :D

I do work intranets (a businesses internal website) usually incorporating a database of some kind.

 

At home I am playing with flash websites and streaming video/audio from home.

I built/managed my work website and intranet and the databases behind them.

 

I have my own website but is not finished yet as dont get the time. When I get home, normally cant be bothered to do anymore work on the PC. lol

Speak to Legrath, he runs his own business and use to work for a company doing their website. He's done Smithy's too iirc.

Well you know i do for a start :D

i primarily use XHTML, CSS2, PHP, Flash and Perl

These are all the old ones, i'm rewriting my new ones in AJAX and PHP at the moment and evolving the administration functions. Check http://www.progrind.co.uk out in the next 24 hours and you'll see how it all slots together. The later ones are the more professional ones:

I feel completely out-classed at the moment :D Oh well, when i get a spare minute to do my own site i'll sort it out :D

bantambuggie has helped me tons on this but im after any other info..Im looking to get a business website setup from scratch, It needs to be able to have csv files ( excel )uploaded to it with part number and cost prices of the items and if possible be able to auto create a skew part number for each part and also be able to add a certain percentage to each price and display that on the website. Also needs a shopping basket ect added to be able to let customer buy the parts cheap online. I have a business paypal account so need it to be merged with that ( paypal offer the links ect to do it). So not asking much but any info u lot have would be geat as i have no idea on this. but want to get setup v soon ,

Thats a bit good Jack. Very nice site.

Cheers matey :) They're all a bit old hat now i think. I'm pushing forward with making more attractive sites with a more corporate feel to them.

 

Clearwater Recruitment is getting close designwise to what i should be doing.

 

Progrind should look pretty good by tomorrow, just sorting out the back end before finishing off the ajax front end.

I've made a few now, some are quick cheap ones, some are a bit more time consuming, but i enjoy it

Unfortunately many of my sites are for media access only, so unless you're a journalist you can't get access. However here are some examples and screenshots for those that are passworded.

 

Suzuki Media Site

This one's the honda media site, it's open to the public. Has all the cool adverts to download! I didn't do the whole thing but some of it, mainly graphics:

Toyota media site, you can only see the front page. I did the whole site on my own and I personally think it's one of the best media sites out there. Fairly strict guidelines on this one:

X factor events, fully flash mini-site. Colour scheme etc NOT chosen by me, I just did the animation, flash and graphics work :)

If anyone knows a good workplace looking for a web designer/coder near Brighton, let me know! I'm looking to move!

P.S Nice stuff guys.

 

Jack - I like your SEO techniques, just checked the source of your index :D

still working on the new shop content on mine.. and still waiting for the online cc authentication to be dropped in, the whole site is low level flash nothing takes more than 3 secs to load on any page.. main page only available this is the retail site, the corporate will be on a different entry page

sim, i like that layout mate, but not sure if its my screen or not, but the graphics are mixed up quite a bit mate, more so on the left .

 

but layout is very nice

the resize code is a bit squiffy in places and some browsers may not implement it, im a dab hand at flash etc, but i have had to change it over 13 times now for full browser compatibility.. doing my tits in, and the shop side is really pissing me off as i have to keep changing the stock and prices all the time, until i get the database automation running, that way i just upload the latest trade figures for the items and it will change the prices for me.

 

the biggest problem at the moment is getting the cc system in for payments and then getting it tested and certified secure

 

 

make sure you have the latest flash and that your browser isnt just minimized, you can do a full screen view that should sort it out.

Dude, how come several parts are split up into separate Flash files? Could they not be combined? I presume it loads product details from XML?

 

Nice one

 

Paul

its that way coz i likes it that way ;) and its just a base entry at them moment, im still compiling and still trying to keep the cc companies happy with the shop side of it
